Chapter 13 agues that the Sasanians created a new vision of the Iranian past and their central role in it by building a new sacred topography. It argues that Avestan sites of memory emerged at locales with no previous Achaemenid monumental activity but which benefited from beautiful and dramatic natural features.

Chapter 15 argues that the Seleucids selectively appropriated the Persian palatial traditions to subsume and supersede the Achaemenid legacy. It argues that the Seleucids also used select Achaemenid palaces as anti-monuments, particularly, Susa. The chapter establishes that contours of Seleucid palatial architecture in Iran from the available evidence. It then tracks how the Arsacids engaged the Seleucid palatial tradition before creating new architecture forms with lasting effects on the Iranian. Namely, domed and vaulted architecture.

Chapter 16 offered a portal into a different reality or perceptual plane and, for those privileged, a means to inhabit, at least momentarily, this hyperreality. That is not to say that everyone who beheld such spaces need be convinced or overawed. Indeed, the casual observer or outsider might only see a crowd milling around a large building. Yet if one were allowed- or physically, cognitively and ritually compelled- to enter into the implied realities of the microcosm of the ayvān, you as viewer or ritual participant were afforded, or perhaps confronted with, depending on the degree to which one identified with the regime, a stunning view of the cosmos and the Iranian king’s place within it.

Chapter 11 argues that the post-Seleucid dynasties appropriated the Seleucid traditions of dynastic cult and dynastic eras as a new Iranian royal tradition. Shifting over the centuries with the rise of new empires and cultural and regional influences, such sanctuaries nevertheless played a central role in defining these dynasties’ royal identity and consolidating their hold over provincial or even transregional Iranian legacies.
